So I have had a prepaid card phone for years now. Not the same phone, just the same number.

I never got around to getting a contract phone and everyone I know in the country has this number so I figure, why bother?

I'm so sick of having to go in a recharge it when my minutes run out. I usually use skype to make calls, but even with just txt msgs and occasionally ordering a pizza, the minutes just fly.

I've only found two ways to recharge my phone 1 - go to Techno Mart to the SK place and pay them to do it. 2 - Go to that little shop just outside exit 4 in Itaewon and bet a card from them. They usually dial it up for me.

But wouldn't it be nice if I could just go to a web site, pay 10 bucks with my paypal and have my phone recharged instantly? Please tell me something like this exists? Please.

If not, is there an easier way to get it recharged? I seriously do not feel like trekking halfway across the city to charge my phone.

if its LG you can recharge your phone at any OZ store. and there are a million of them.

Is it possible to get a phone without having a bank account/ARC card?

Also consider getting those SK/Charge cards. They really are helpful on a Sunday or late at night and you have run out of money. And no I am not talking about long distance phone cards.

If it is SK, you can dial *11 and pay with your bank card.

what phone company is it with?
if it's show, go to a show store.
lg go to an lg store.
etc.

they should be able to do it there. no need to run around seoul.
